Having the opportunity to speak at the inaugural IoT M2M Big Data Summit was an honour for me. It was a chance to connect with people on how technology has and will continue to change the way companies conduct their business. If you have the opportunity to attend any one of the IoT Summits I think it would benefit you and your company to learn from experts IoT brings to each forum.

I was thrilled to be asked and it was a pleasure speaking at Industrial IoT, Big Data. The topics were great, the mix of key note addresses, round tables and networking was perfect; just the right amount of time and coordination for networking. Looking forward to the next event.

This event has been fantastic.

Stuart Cowan, Chief Scientist

I came to the IoT event with Microsoft who’s one of our big partners. One of things I have enjoyed so much so far today is the content of the people speaking and also the networking that has come from the event. It’s been really refreshing and a lot of good conversations to have from there. After the experience today, we will probably also join the IoT, Big Data event for the Oil and Gas industry in Calgary. I’ve very much enjoyed my experience and I’d recommend it to anybody else too.

I thoroughly enjoyed your IoT Intelligent Cities Summit. The speakers I heard on November 8th were excellent. The event exceeded my expectations and I learned a lot. The Intelligent Cities Summit is an excellent way to find out what municipalities are doing to harness and benefit from the ongoing changes
in technology. I would recommend this Summit to anyone from the public sector, and to anyone in the private sector who interacts with government.
